When you're working on your robot you'll likely want to plug it into a wall socket rather than run it from batteries. For that you'll need a reliable __USB Power Supply__ with enough current capacity to run your
processor (e.g., [Raspberry Pi]), your [sensors], [motors] and any other accessories (such as displays).
When you're working on your robot you'll likely want to plug it into a wall socket rather than run it from batteries. You'd call that a [Bench Power Supply].

We'll focus on the [Raspberry Pi] since it generally requires more power than other [microcomputers/microcontrollers|microcontrollers].
We'll focus on the [Raspberry Pi] since it generally requires more power than other [microcomputers/microcontrollers|microcontrollers]. The Raspberry Pi requires a 5 volt power supply and generates an onboard regulated 3.3 volt supply for its peripherals. Most processors suitable for small robots require either 5 volts or 3.3 volts, but if they have a USB connector on them it's likely so you can use a USB charger as a power supply. Obviously, ''read the user manual''.
